The disposable electronic cigarette includes a housing, a battery assembly and an atomization device. The housing is hollow, and defines openings at two opposite ends. The battery assembly and the atomization device are connected, and disposed inside the housing. The atomization device includes a liquid absorption member, a glass fiber tube, an electrical heating component and a liquid stopper. The electrical heating component further includes a heating wire and a liquid-conducting core. The battery assembly includes a cell core, a controller and an LED lamp. A lampshade is provided on a first end of the housing, and a mouthpiece cover is arranged at a second end of the housing. The beneficial effects are that the battery assembly and atomization device are provided inside the housing to form one piece, avoiding assembling before smoking. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A disposable electronic cigarette, comprising a housing, a battery assembly, and an atomization device, the housing being hollow and comprising openings at two opposite ends thereof, the battery assembly and the atomization device being connected and disposed in the housing. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 1, wherein the atomization device comprises a liquid absorption member, a glass fiber tube, an electrically heating component and a liquid stopper, the glass fiber tube is hollow and defines openings at two opposite ends thereof, the atomization device further comprises a hollow protruding rod, the protruding rod is arranged at a first end of the liquid stopper, the protruding rod defines a through hole, the through hole extends through the liquid stopper, the stopper comprises a protruding stage at a second end thereof, the liquid stopper defines a groove along a circumferential direction thereof, the electrically heating component is mounted to the glass fiber tube, a first end of the glass fiber tube is connected with the protruding rod of the liquid stopper, and an outer surface of the glass fiber tube is wrapped with the liquid absorption member. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 1, wherein the atomization device comprises a liquid tank, a liquid guide, an electrically heating component, and a liquid stopper, the liquid guide comprises a liquid tank cushion, and a cotton cloth, the liquid tank is disposed on the liquid tank cushion, the liquid tank cushion is arranged on the cotton cloth, the cotton cloth is disposed on the liquid stopper, the liquid tank defines an opening at an end thereof, the liquid stopper is airtight connected to the end of the liquid tank, the electrically heating component is arranged at the end of the liquid tank, and engaged in the liquid stopper. ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 2, wherein the liquid stopper defines wire holes at two opposite sides of the protruding rod. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 2, wherein the protruding rod and the liquid stopper are integrally formed. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 2, wherein the electrical heating component comprises a heating wire, and a liquid-conducting core, the heating wire is spirally wound around the liquid-conducting core, two ends of the liquid-conducting core pass through a sidewall of the glass fiber tube, and then extend outwardly in a horizontal direction, two ends of the heating wire are connected to conductive wires, the conductive wires pass through the wire holes of the liquid stopper, and connect to the battery assembly. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 6, wherein the liquid-conducting core has a rod-shaped structure, a U-shaped structure, or an S-shaped structure. ### Claim 8 (depends on 2) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 2, wherein the liquid absorption member has a structure of fibrous mesh. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 1, wherein the battery assembly comprises a cell core, a controller, and an LED (light emitting diode) lamp, a first end of the cell core is connected with the liquid stopper, a second end of the cell core is connected with the controller, and the LED lamp is disposed on the controller. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 9, further comprising a controller holder, wherein the controller is arranged in the controller holder, and the controller holder is arranged at the second end of the cell core. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 1, further comprising a lampshade at a first end of the housing, wherein the lampshade defines slots in side surface thereof. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 11, wherein the lampshade and the controller holder are integrally formed. ### Claim 13 (depends on 7) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 7, further comprising a mouthpiece cover at a second end of the housing, wherein the mouthpiece cover defines a suction hole, the suction hole faces a second end of the glass fiber tube. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The disposable electronic cigarette according to claim 1, wherein the housing is made of metal or plastic. ### Claim 15 (depends on 9) The disposable electronic cigarette of claim 9, wherein a diameter of the cell core is less than that of the housing.
